The 8000 series modules draw less than 12 Watts each except for the HM8040-2
Power Supply module, which requires up to 30 Watts. Only one HM8040-2 should be
used per mainframe. Four BNC connectors (option HO80-1), at the rear of the
mainframe, allow signals to or from the modules to be interfaced to the outside.
The mechanical strength of the mainframe allows stacking of a
maximum of 5 units, allowing for minimal lab bench footprint space. Stacking is
facilitated by removable foot rests on top of each unit that prevents sliding
when stacked. Since the largest dimension is depth, a large number of
modules/mainframes can be stacked and combined to form a test setup with minimal
front panel space. The mainframe of the Modular System 8000 can also be stacked
with any other Hameg instrument, such as oscilloscopes and System 8100 series
instruments.
